  • Patent number: 10998288
    Abstract: A non-leaded semiconductor device comprises a sealing body for sealing a semiconductor chip, a tab in the interior of the sealing body, suspension leads for supporting the tab, leads having respective surfaces exposed to outer edge portions of a back surface of the sealing body, and wires connecting pads formed on the semiconductor chip and the leads. End portions of the suspension leads positioned in an outer periphery portion of the sealing body are unexposed to the back surface of the sealing body, but are covered with the sealing body. Stand-off portions of the suspending leads are not formed in resin molding. When cutting the suspending leads, corner portions of the back surface of the sealing body are supported by a flat portion of a holder portion in a cutting die having an area wider than a cutting allowance of the suspending leads, whereby chipping of the resin is prevented.

  • Patent number: 10522446
    Abstract: In order to improve reliability of a semiconductor device, the semiconductor device includes a semiconductor chip, a die pad, a plurality of leads, and a sealing portion. The die pad and the leads are made of a metal material mainly containing copper. A plating layer is formed on a top surface of the die pad. The plating layer is formed by a silver plating layer, a gold plating layer, or a platinum plating layer. The semiconductor chip is mounted on the plating layer on the top surface of the die pad via a bonding material. The plating layer is covered by the bonding material not to be in contact with the sealing portion.

  • Patent number: 10490486
    Abstract: In a non-leaded type semiconductor device, a tab, tab suspension leads, and other leads are exposed to one surface of a seal member. A semiconductor element is positioned within the seal member and fixed to a surface of the tab with an adhesive. The tab is formed larger than the semiconductor element so that outer peripheral edges of the tab are positioned outside outer peripheral edges of the semiconductor element. A groove is formed in the tab surface portion positioned between the area to which the semiconductor element is fixed and wire connection areas to which the wires are connected, the groove being formed so as to surround the semiconductor element fixing area, thereby preventing peeling-off between the tab to which the semiconductor element is fixed and the resin which constitutes the package.
